Religion / Friday Sermon - Why Are Muslim Backward by Yinkame123(m): 2:18pm On Jul 23, 2016 |
I got this Friday Sermon some years ago and shared it on my facebook page. However, there was a post yesterday on solutions to religious extremism in Islam posted by Seun. I think a open minded consumption of this write up will reveal the fact that most of those deranged lunatics calling themselves muslims are actually kafir (infidels) hiding under he banner of religion to perpetrate evil. But in a society where the voice of the few violent ones a loudest, people tends to use the loudest voice as a moral compass to judge others. Allah says that Muslims are the best people or nation? Are we now? Muslims are backward educationally, socially, and economically and in world power politically. Need to make a self-critical study: Nobel Prize winners, Olympic Gold Medal winners. Number of books published, number of articles published. Number of scientists per 100,000 population. The Qur’an and Hadith exhort the Muslims to read and excel in education –both men and women. In this Masjid people leave free literature. How many of the worshippers pick them and read them and take action? Look at the literacy rate in the Muslim Ummah. Muslim countries like, Afghanistan, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Somalia, Sudan, etc. Now Afghanistan is in a hopeless situation with civil wars. Sisters who constitute 50% of the population are not allowed to go pursue education. Rabbi Zidni Ilma, 20: 114 (Ta Ha) Oh Lord enrich me with knowledge. Pakistan’s average literacy rate is 26% for all the population-male and female. Contrast this with India’s, which has an average literacy rate of 52 %. Pakistan is the most advanced country in Science and Technology. It is the only Muslim nuclear power country. What is the GDP for education and for defence? How much is wasted through corruption. The average literary rate of the whole Muslim Ummah is around 35 %. For our sisters it is about one half. In rural areas only it is only about 2 to 5 %. In United States a woman gets 12.4 years of school education. In Bangladesh she gets only 0.9 year of school education and in Yemen she gets only 0.2 years of school education. Knowledge is power. The U.S. is the only super power. Why? Because it has knowledge in every field of human endeavor. Most of the immigrant Muslims came here (United States of America) for higher education. Go to any developing country and ask a student where do you want to go for higher education. The answer invariably will be United States. US is a super power and power corrupts and absolutely corrupts absolutely. No doubt the US Foreign Policy is not even handed and commits wrong to some Muslim countries because of the lobbyists. Then how do Muslims correct the situation? Most of us are immigrants and many are US citizens. Our children and grand children are growing here. With violence we cannot correct the situation, which is not Islamic when it is targeted towards the innocent civilians. I have seen many brothers call the Westerners as Kuffar, but what I know is they are called the Ahl-e-Kitab- people of the Book. We can change the situation through Ilm (knowledge) and Aml plus Sabr (patience). We need to be organized. First we need to be united. We can learn many lessons from other communities how they correct their situations and shortcomings. Thousand years ago, our ancestors were masters in Astronomy, like Al-Biruni, Battani, etc. Today our knowledge of Astronomy is weak. The early Muslims built astronomical observatories, created calendars, astrolabes, etc. Day before yesterday (Wednesday) was the new moon. The solar eclipse occurs when the moon comes between the sun and the earth and when they are all in conjunction or in a straight line. It happens on the new moon day. On a new moon day the Hilal (crescent) is not visible anywhere in the world. It is visible the next day. The Hilal was seen yesterday (Thursday) and hence today is the first day of Jumada ul Awwal. Some Muslim countries declared yesterday was the first day of Jumada ul Awwal. No wonder why Muslims celebrate Ids on three different days in the same town. It happened here in the United States. It is just ignorance. We do not have sound Deeni Talim (knowledge of religion) nor of the Duniya (world). Thirty years years ago man landed on the moon. Many Muslims consider moon as a sacred celestial clock. The devout Muslims refused to believe that man had landed on the moon. But 1,000 years ago Muslims were in the forefront in every field of knowledge. The students from the West came to Muslim Spain, Sicily, Cairo, and Baghdad to study the sciences. Take the example of Abu Rayhan al-Biruni. He was 26 years old, 1,000 years ago today. Sultan Mahmood of Ghazna in Afghanistan conquered his native place Khev and brought him to his capitol. Sultan Mahmood was not only a conqueror but also a scholar who gathered eminent scholars like Firdousi who is famous for Shah Nama and Abu Rayhan Al-Biruni. Sultan Mahmood took Al-Biruni with him to India. In India al-Biruni stayed for 20 years studying from Pandits their sciences, mathematics, philosophy, etc. He learnt Sanskrit and translated Snakhya and Patanjali into Arabic. He measured the radius and diameter of the earth to within + or _ 20 km and 200 km respectively. He showed the earth rotates on its axis. He explained how the solar and lunar eclipses occur. He saved the life of a traveler who told the Sultan that in a land the sun never sets. The land of the midnight sun. The Sultan decreed a death sentence to the traveler for blasphemy. However al-Biruni explained that the tilt of the earth towards the sun in the summer causes the phenomenon of the midnight sun. Like our ancestors Muslims should take the lead in scientific study, exploration and knowledge. INTELLECTUAL REVIVAL OF MUSLIMS is the need of the hour. The greatest pleasure for a father or mother is when their son or daughter achieves or rather excels in education, profession, power, wealth, etc. The most important is education. If I am a middle school graduate, then it is my responsibility to make my children high-school graduates or college graduates. If I am a high school graduate, then I should make my children college graduates or postgraduates. If I am a college graduate, then I should make my children obtain doctoral degrees. May Allah (SWT) give us the Tawfeek to understand His Deen and follow His Guidance. This Jumuah Khutbah was given by Dr. Ibrahim B. Syed at the Islamic Center of Louisville, Louisville, KY on August 13, 1999. It is a food for thought for leaders of the Nigerian Muslim Ummah and Muslim political leaders. 1 Like |

Politics / Re: Photos From The Suicide Bomb Blasts On Maiduguri Mosque This Morning by Yinkame123(m): 2:36pm On Oct 23, 2015 |
buygala: I quite agree with your intelligent observations and analysis. However, the cement patch was not as a result of recent renovation but was as a result of the heat generated from the explosive. The flames and trajectory of debris on the wall in my opinion shows that the bomb is closer to that point and the blood stays indicate someone is badly hit towards that end. Similarly, except the suppose suicide bomber is ejected from the wall (Which i think is impossible considering the speed at which such individual would have traveled to have burst through the wall). In all indication i dont think that bombing was done by a suicide bomber but rather the bomb is place at that sport. While i will rule out RPG is that if the point of entry of the bomb is from that point the splash of the blood wouldnt be to the upper level of the building because the point of impact to the first IP would have been at hip or leg level (Depending on the height.) so it is a well planned attack. As for the culpability of the mosque management i think at this point except a concrete evidence is produced have anything to do with this. Mosque are not like churches that have security 24/7 especially when is a local mosque 1 Like |
Politics / Is There Any Science To Handwriting Analysis? by Yinkame123(m): 2:19pm On Oct 23, 2015 |
IS THERE ANY SCIENCE TO HANDWRITING ANALYSIS? Handwriting analysis, or graphology, is the study of handwriting and how it is connected to a person’s behavior and personality. It has been in existence for thousands of years and is used mostly for employment profiling, marital compatibility, jury screening, psychological analysis, and even medical diagnosis. Forensic analysis to authenticate a document or determine whether a particular person wrote a document is not graphology. Graphology is based on the assumption that the brain and the central nervous system directly influence the movement of the hand. Graphologists believe that handwriting is the physical manifestation of the subconscious. These are examples of how graphology claims to link handwriting and personality traits: letters slant to the left (has emotional control); letters slant to the right (is friendly and impulsive); the slants of letters are different (is versatile); small letters (is intelligent but has low self-esteem); large letters (is confident); massive letters (is theatrical and loud); narrow letters (is shy and self-disciplined); wide letters (is emotionally open); wide spaces between letters (prefers isolation); connecting letters (is cautious); perfect writing (is a good communicator); messy writing (is secretive); endings curve upward (is generous); and the t is crossed above the stem (is a daydreamer). Graphologists once analyzed doodles made by Tony Blair at an economic forum. They concluded that the shapes of his words and drawings indicated he had a political death wish, the ability to come up with a fluent answer, and an inability to complete tasks. As it transpired, the doodles were in fact made by Bill Gates, the world’s richest man, who certainly possessed an ability to complete tasks. Critics of graphology claim that graphologists rely on the content of what is written and that the lack of any scientific evidence makes it meaningless. The majority of studies conclude that it has no validity and that, in more than 70 percent of cases, graphologists cannot even determine the writer’s gender. Nevertheless, it was estimated in the 1980s that around 3,000 businesses in the US used graphology in screening potential employees, with suggestions that the number has grown considerably since that time.

Politics / Re: Pic : Gowon And Trudeau In 1973, Is Africa Moving Forward Or Backward??? by Yinkame123(m): 6:12pm On Oct 21, 2015 |
moscobabs: In as much as our politics still revolve around money, ethinicity and religion it will take the camel to pass through the eyes of the needle before what we termed as youth will occupied the seat of president in this nation. Have we asked ourselves how much in cash value will it take to procure election in Nigeria even from the local level. Which money bag in our country today will bring billions to support our so called youth to lead our nation? In most cases we sight example from countries where things are normal. Where the environment create opportunities that will make one to want to lead and will have the chance to lead without anyone looking at where you come from and what material things you possess. Are the old war horses to blame for been the one that continue to rule us from donkey years? our constitution does not allowed independent candidate, hence you need a party to sponsor you. From the party level without telling ourselves lies, do we actually believe a party in Nigeria that have chances of winning an election will bring some toddlers that are still sucking their parent breast to lead the nation? Whenever we bring this issue up we tend to ask ourselves the hard question. Youths made of 60% of our population which kind of youth are we talking about?. Youth that are yet to know what they want from live? Youth that are yet to acquire the necessary skills and experience to even lead their immediate family talk less of a whole nation. Skill are learned, experience are acquired and environment played a vital role in the outcome of the two. From your post the young man was son of former prime minister of Canada which means he was born into political family which has given him the necessary skill, experience and exposure to lead. If the likes of Tinubu, Obasanjo, Ojukwu, Azikwe sponsored their children to become leader in this country aint we the same people that will scream blue murder that they are turning the nation to family affairs. In my humble opinion the situation in our country does still not present the opportunity for our so called youth to occupy higher position. |

That has been their style for long. They usually choose there target carefully for them to be assure the individual can part with huge amount of money. A colleague paid 300,000 for this kind of scam sometimes ago. the young man in question drives a good latest model car. He was stopped by three police in a traffic in PH. He wind down his side door wind shield to talk to them that was when the traffic moved. They asked him to park which he did. When he opened the door to come out the three police men jumped into the car and asked him to drive. His mind was that they were taking him to the station and he was not bothered as all his documents were intact. Few yards from the point where they jumped in one of the policemen at the back shouted that 'oga this is the gun'. He thought it was just some kind of conversation between the policemen until they accused him that he was in possession of gun that was used for robbery. He was confused on what to do next. They told him to start driving to the station. Fearing for his life he told the policemen that he was not the owner of the gun. They told him to settle if he does not want to go to the station. They asked him to pay 1 million naira. At the long run he agreed to pay them 300,000 but that they will follow him to the bank which they gladly do. He dragged them towards the CCTV so that they can be captured. After paying the money, they let him off the hook. He reported the matter to the police and go to his bank to collect the cctv footage so that the policemen could be identified. It was a surprise when the bank said the cctv was not working as at that point in time. 2 Likes |

Health / Excessive Hair In Women by Yinkame123(m): 7:29am On Aug 22, 2015 |
Hirsutism is a condition where women have excess unwanted hair on their faces and bodies. With this masculine hair presentation, the hair is dark and coarse and usually appears where men typically grow hair, on the chest, face, and back. It is normal for a woman to have fair share of hair, distributed all over her body. A woman’s arm pit (under arm ), and pubic hair is of moderate quantity depending on hereditary factors. Normally, a woman only has fine hair, above the lips and on the chin, chest, abdomen, or back. The presence of coarse dark hair in these areas is an indication of the presence of excessive male hormones. The amount of hair varies among women. But about half of women with hirsutism may have high levels of male sex hormones called androgens. Most cases of hirsutism are not severe, and are not caused by any underlying condition. However, sometimes there is a more serious underlying condition, such as Cushing syndrome.( a condition which arises from excessive exposure to the hormone cortisol ). Sometimes no cause can be found. Signs and Symptoms The main symptom are hair growing on the abdomen, breasts, and upper lip (male-pattern hair growth in women). If hirsutism is caused by high levels of male hormones, symptoms may also include: • Irregular menstrual periods • Acne • Loss of feminine body shape • Signs of masculinity, deepening voice, male pattern baldness, enlarged clitoris, enlarged shoulder muscles If Cushing syndrome is indicated, signs and symptoms can include: • Obesity, especially around the middle section • High blood pressure • Diabetes • Thinning skin . Possible causes About half of women with hirsutism have high levels of male sex hormones, called androgens. Those high levels can be caused by: • Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), which may also cause infertility • A common cause of hirsutism is (PCOS). Women with PCOS and other hormone conditions that cause unwanted hair growth may also have acne, problems with menstrual periods, trouble losing weight, and diabetes. If these symptoms start suddenly, you may have a tumor that releases male hormones. • Tumors on the adrenal glands or ovaries • Cushing syndrome, from excessive exposure to cortisol. • Medications that can cause hair growth. • Anabolic steroids , for body building. • Drugs used to treat endometriosis Menopause : Estrogen production is decreased but the continued androgen production leads to an increase in the number of terminal hair. When there is an underlying condition, it is easy to find the possible cause of Hirsutism , as the high level of androgen , is an indicator. What your doctor would do in diagnosis: • When you see a doctor, you will be examined and your medical history will be taken. • . You may be asked about your menstrual cycle, • what medications you take, and your family history. • Your doctor will check you for hair growth and • also may do a pelvic examination to check for tumors or cysts on the ovaries. • Blood tests, measuring hormonal levels , may show high androgen levels. • Imaging tests, including CT scan, MRI, pelvic ultrasound, used to find cysts or tumors on the ovaries or adrenal glands The cause of Hirsutism would determine the type of treatment. • For women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), for example, losing weight through diet and exercise may help. Obese women are placed on low calorie diet. Treatment Medications can be substituted if they are causing excessive hair growth. A tumor on the ovaries or adrenal glands can be removed surgically. Weight loss is advised for obese women, so that they do not produce more androgens. Counseling would also go a long way, as this condition could cause very deep emotional situations. The kind of life style you keep matters. Being overweight may contribute to hirsutism. Eating a balanced diet and getting enough exercise can help control weight. Medication Certain medication would have to be taken long term. • Birth control pills. Some birth control pills can lower the amount of androgens your body makes. • Drugs that blocks androgen from being used in the body • Also , prescription cream for unwanted facial hair. It slows new hair growth but does not get rid of existing hair. Once you stop using the cream, the hair grows back. The use of surgery to remove cancerous ovaries, and laser to hinder hair growth. In your food These nutritional tips may help women stay at a good weight, which may help lower androgens in the body: • Eat antioxidant foods, including fruits (such as blueberries, cherries, and tomatoes) and vegetables (such as squash and bell peppers). • Avoid refined foods, such as white breads, pastas, and especially sugar. • Eat fewer red meats and more lean meats, cold-water fish, tofu (soy, if no allergy), or beans for protein. • Use healthy oils in foods, such as olive oil or vegetable oil. • Reduce or eliminate trans fat, found in commercially-baked goods, such as cookies, crackers, cakes, French fries, onion rings, donuts, processed foods, and some margarines. • Avoid alcohol and tobacco. • Drink 6 to 8 glasses of filtered water daily. • Exercise at least 30 minutes daily, 5 days a week. Herbs Herbs may strengthen and tone the body’s systems. In pregnancy, you must consult your doctor before taking any medication, to control this condition.

The problem with our marriage nowadays in opinion was that we tend to expect some pattern of behavior from our partners and when what we does not follow that pattern we tend to be disappointed and start having grudges. While what we term as third party in most cases are what is a catalyst to help some our problems. What do you think could be the consequences of that man holding that thought in his mind which could make him explode and do something crazy. For the friends to have called you to asked for what happened it means your husband trust his friends and they give you chance to defend yourself. What if they refused to call you and just concluded you are a bad woman. Shy not see light in what you see as darkness? In most cases those people we despise are the ones that tells the truth without looking at our faces. A brother was once caught by the wife cheating. The wife got annoyed and went to her father to report. The father annoying in the presence of the wife summons the husband to see him. When the husband got to the father in law house, he excused the husband to his inner bedroom while the wife and the mother were in the living room. As they entered the bedroom the wife excused herself and went behind the window of the room to listened to what the father will tell the husband. She was surprised when the father in law said to the husband " oh boy you messed up o how will your wife caught you in act you are not smart at all" the daughter heard this and started crying that the father is encouraging the husband to cheat on her. The father response was that " my dear daughter am only buying a seat for you in your husband house. What will one say to such response. Please be guided. |

Politics / Amongst Who Will The Ministers Be Choosing by Yinkame123(m): 11:09am On Jul 12, 2015 |
One of the campaign promises of APC lead government was to fight corruption which is so pervasive in our clime to a standstill. And through to his words Mr President had been showing some toughs in these regards though not at the pace Nigerian expected. While I understand the frustrations of Nigerians as regards the slow pace this present government is working and the attendance consequences on the delay in appointing the ministers one is forced to ask the question amongst who will the ministers be choosing or appointed. It is a known fact in Nigeria that ministerial positions are used to settled political friends and interests especially ones that worked tooth and nails during campaign and electioneering. Just few technocrats are given chances to occupied strategic ministries in the past regimes. We all have seen the contributions of NO I during OBJ regime which helps in Nigeria getting debt relief from Paris club. Professor Nebo as the power minister also did well before the scandal that saw his outer from GEJ government. If this present government decided to use technocrats in running his government especially those that did not contribute no effort in emergence as the president will that not cause chaos in the polity? And if he decided to use politicians, how many of our Nigerian politicians today can come clean as part of prerequisites set by PMB to appoints members of his cabinet. My questions to my fellow Nairalanders is that whom do you think or know as politician or technocrat that can be of an immense value to PMB cabinet.? Yinkame 123 |
Romance / Legalising Polygamy Marriage by Yinkame123(m): 4:00pm On Jul 05, 2015 |
July 03, 2015. AMERICA AGAIN? HUSBAND INSISTS POLYGAMY MUST BE LEGALIZED It is a known fact that Americans predominantly determine how people eat, drink, dress, talk, study and love in most parts of the world. If they say one-man/one-wife, many will follow blindly. If they say man can marry a fellow man and two women can do same, many will follow them. So now that an American is pushing for polygamy which we Africans had but lost to them, are we going to return to our culture if and when America legalizes polygamy? Your guess is as good... A Montana has said he was inspired by last week's U.S. Supreme Court decision legalizing gay marriage to apply for a marriage license so that he can legally wed his second wife. Mr. Nathan Collier and his wives, Victoria and Christine, applied at the Yellowstone County Courthouse in Billings on Tuesday in an attempt to legitimize their polygamous marriage. Montana, like all 50 states, outlaws bigamy, holding multiple marriage licenses. "It's about marriage equality," Collier told The Associated Press. "You can't have this without polygamy." County clerk officials initially denied Collier's application, then said they would consult with the county attorney's office before giving him a final answer. County chief civil litigator Kevin Gillen has however said he is reviewing Montana's bigamy laws and expected to send a formal response to Collier by next week. Mr. Collier said he would sue the state if his application is denied because if allow gay you must also by all means allow those who want to practice polygamy so as to marry the many single ladies around. We are waiting for the final result!!! |
